  • Review and evaluate complex Health Hazard Assessments and Health Authority requests.

  • Perform signal management activities, such as signal validation QC, authoring complex signal evaluations, and reviewing signal evaluations. Act as a medical reviewer to assess causality and consolidate safety data to determine whether a signal qualifies as a risk.

  • Support global risk management activities and contribute to Risk Management Plans (RMPs), REMS, and risk minimization measures throughout the product lifecycle.

  • Represent Pharmacovigilance (PV) in cross-functional teams, particularly in the Product Label Working Group, ensuring safety-related sections of the product label are evaluated and updated as needed.

  • Provide safety contributions to Health Authority submissions and responses, representing PV during product due diligence.

  • Collaborate effectively with internal and external stakeholders, including Medical Affairs, Clinical Development, Quality, KOLs, and CROs, to address safety concerns and ensure the overall safety profile of assigned products.
